Kawneer KW050878-40 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly comes with the Kawneer KW050878-40 part number?
KW050878-40 is a Norton 1601 door closer supplied with a standard arm, finished in dark bronze. It is ordered as one Kawneer service part number, so the closer body and the standard arm come together rather than being specified separately.
2) I manage a building with Kawneer entrances and one closer is leaking oil. Is this the right replacement?
If the failed unit is a Norton 1601 with a standard arm in dark bronze on a Kawneer door, KW050878-40 is the direct service replacement for it. Check the label on the existing closer body for the 1601 model and confirm the arm is a regular arm, not a parallel or hold-open arm, before ordering.
3) Is the KW050878-40 closer a genuine Kawneer part or an aftermarket substitute?
It is a factory-sourced Kawneer service part, listed under Kawneer Service Parts. That matters on aluminum storefront and entrance systems where the closer package was originally specified by Kawneer, because you keep the original mounting and finish match instead of adapting a generic closer.
4) Will the dark bronze finish match the other closers on my Kawneer storefront doors?
The KW050878-40 is supplied in dark bronze, the common anodized finish used across Kawneer commercial entrances. If the neighboring openings were originally dark bronze, this replacement carries the same finish designation. If your existing doors are clear anodized or painted white, order the matching finish variant of the closer instead of this one.
5) What is a standard arm closer, and when do I need a different arm instead?
A standard (regular) arm mounts on the pull side of the door with the closer body on the door and the arm shoe on the frame face. It is the common arrangement where there is frame face available and door swing clearance on the pull side. If the closer has to sit on the push side, or the opening needs hold-open or a parallel arm tucked under the frame soffit, a standard arm package like KW050878-40 is not the right configuration.
6) Does the KW050878-40 closer replace the exit device on the door too?
No. It is only the door closer and arm, which controls the swing and closing of the door. The latching hardware, whether that is a rim exit device, panic device or lock, is separate and is not included or replaced by this part.
7) Is this closer suitable for a high-traffic commercial entrance or only light interior doors?
It is a commercial-rated part, not a residential closer. The Norton 1601 unit is used on commercial door control in office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, government facilities, industrial buildings and multi-tenant residential entrances, which is the traffic level this part is intended for.
